A man suffered a fractured cheek and jaw after being set upon by a drunken lout as he sat in a pizza parlour.

Robert Savage was left in a pool of blood after the attack by Charles Lamont in Pizza Planet, Blind Lane, Silksworth, Sunderland, on October 11.

Bob Scragg, prosecuting, said: "At around 11pm Mr Savage had gone to the pizza shop with his friend. They were approached by Charles Lamont. Out of the blue he head-butted Mr Savage's friend and then set about Mr Savage."

Lamont, 28, of Newpoint Grove, Silksworth, and his brother Thomas, of Guernsey Road, Grindon, both pleaded guilty to affray. Charles Lamont was sentenced to 15 months in jail and Thomas received a 200-hour community punishment order.
